I also wonder if people didn't realize it started an hour earlier. I didn't. :nerd

TV Ratings for The Bachelorette 5

Episode 3:
6.34 million viewers and 2.2/6 in adults 18-49.

Not bad, but not good either.

Comparison to The Bachelorette 4 is best as it's also a summer series. Jillian is doing about as well as MeAnna. (At this point The Bachelor seasons are fairly stable in ratings.) No real competition again. I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here premiered. Although it wasn't strong, it narrowly beat The Bachelorette. The Bachelorette improved in each of it's half-hours, and is slightly up from last week. And still the Fleissian drama hasn't started yet. Who knows what will happen once the hype kicks in?

Lead out show Here Come The Newlyweds lost over one and a half million viewers from The Bachelorette's last half-hour, again.

Comparison to episode 2:
6.01 million viewers and 2.1/6 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to Premiere episode:
8.94 million viewers and 3.0/8 in adults 18-49.

She looks happy but I don't see a ring sticking out. I guess they are asking her not to wear it?

It's my understanding that the ring goes back into the possession of ABC until the FRC is aired and is usually given back at the ATFR. However, have heard anything about an ATFR being taped this year?

Has it been concluded that there was a proposal in the end?

TV Ratings for The Bachelorette 5

Episode 4:
7.16 million viewers and 2.4/7 in adults 18-49.

Continued improvement. The Bachelorette was #1 in it's time period in the demo, and improved in both viewers and demo each half-hour. It beat it's reality competition I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here by about two million viewers. Last week's performance was a premiere fluke.

In perspective, Jillian's The Bachelorette 5 is beating The Bachelorette 4 by over three quarters of a million viewers, and even beating The Bachelor 12. And that's without the typical Fleissian hype about the "twist" which hasn't even started yet.

Lead out show Here Come The Newlyweds lost about two and a half million viewers from The Bachelorette's last half-hour, it's worst yet. Despite that collapse, ABC was second in viewers and tied for #1 in the demo for the night, all because of The Bachelorette.

Comparison to episode 3:
6.34 million viewers and 2.2/6 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to episode 2:
6.01 million viewers and 2.1/6 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to Premiere episode:
8.94 million viewers and 3.0/8 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to The Bachelor 13 (Jasson) episode 4:
10.58 million viewers and 4.0/9 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to The Bachelor 12 (Matt) episode 4:
6.83 million viewers and 2.5/6 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to The Bachelor 11 (Br@d) episode 4:
9.3 million viewers and 3.4/9 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to The Bachelor 10 (Andy) episode 4:
9.47 million viewers and 3.4/9 in adults 18-49.

Comparison to The Bachelor 9 (Lorenzo) episode 4:
8.2 million viewers and 3.2/8 in adults 18-49.
